ATTENTION FIRST TIME BUYERS: Totally Rehabbed Home Available for Down Payment Assistance

By
Mortgage and Lending with Los Angeles & Ventura Counties in CA

 

 


There is a lovely Canoga Park home that offers 3bd/1ba on more than 9,000 sq. ft. lot.  Beautifully remodeled and fully rehabilitated, this completely energy efficient home offers a brand new kitchen, new wood & tile flooring throughout, new windows & doors, a new tankless water heater and all new landscaping. 


This lovely home is totally move-in ready and is just waiting for the right first time buyer to come along and fall in love with it!!!



Minutes from Pierce College as well as the wonderful shopping, dining and entertainment destinations in Woodland Hills and the Warner Center, this is the perfect starter home for that young professional.  There is no competing with all cash investors either, this home is only available to eligible and qualified, low-median income individuals or families who are looking for their first home.

 


 

 

 

The best part is that this home is also eligible for down payment assistance through the Los Angeles Housing Department (LAHD) Neighborhood Stabilization Program (NSP).  NSP down payment assistance is a "silent second", which means no payment until the home is sold or refinanced.  For approx. $1,400 a month, eligible buyers can own this wonderful home.  Consquently, comparable rentals for this area are going for around $2,000 a month.

 

No more having to overbid for some dump just so you can get your offer accepted.  No more worrying about whether or not it will appraise for value and what repairs are going to be required.  No more having to get pre-approved with the REO bank just to be able to make an offer.  No more worrying about how much more money you are going to need to spend after the close of escrow just to make the house habitable.

 

Program Requirements:

  • Eligible homebuyers must not presently have an ownership interest in any real property and they must occupy the property as their primary residence.
  • Eligible homebuyers must also attend and complete an eight (8) hour homebuyer education class.
  • A minimum of 1% of the purchase price is required as down payment.The one percent (1%) must come from the borrower's own funds.
  • Eligible buyers must meet NSP maximum income guidelines limits.

Today's real estate market and lending environment can be really scary, which is why it's important to get as much information as possible before starting your search.  Finding out more about affordable home loan options and getting pre-approved is an absolute must.

 

The pre-approval process is not a simple process and it's because it can get really complicated and convoluted, that borrowers today need affordable loan options that are best suited for their own needs.

Donne -- definitely a great value for qualified first time homebuyers especially when considering the high cost of renting in this market.   Hope a smart buyer uses your mortgage services.

Hi Donne, I got a call to help a client on this program last year. My first thought was "oh no." I was honest and told the client that I would need to take a look at the program and what he was eligible for before I made a commitment. I wanted to be sure that I could really help him. I am so glad that I said yes, because we found him a house, participated in the program and his family was ecstatic! One of the best experiences that I have had. Thanks for highlighting the program.

Michael - All my borrowers are smart for using me!  LOL  :)

Connie - There are still so many people out here that are in a position to buy but are just not aware of all the various loan options available to them.  My job is to educate and inform those looking for info.

Lisa - The west San Fernando valley, epecially Warner Center, is a happening place.  This is the perfect starter home for a young professional who is paying more in rent to live in this area.

Keisha - NSP is such a wonderful program for the low-medium income buyer.  While the down payment assistance is a wonderful part of the program, the thing I love the most about NSP properties are that they are all totally rehabbed propeties and they are not available to cash investors - only those who qualify for NSP.  So buyers are not competing with lowball investors and they get a totally move-in ready home at a great price.

Thx for stopping by everyone; I really appreciate it.  Have a good day and a great week too!  :)
